This thread is mighty ass. Imma put my input in and Imma leave, because niggas are truly fooling in this thread lol.
Doom:
Doom in terms of support and on point is top 3. Missiles is a top assist in the game. It anti-airs, locks down and gives you free fuzzies. Godlike. Plasma beam is also ridiculously good. Molecular shield is his worst assist and I have been seeing alot more utility with it lately.
On point, he has some god awful match-ups. Zero, Hawkeye, Magneto might give him trouble, Captain America, Dormammu/Doom is such a bad match-up smh, Vergil can get bad sometimes etc. However, dude can hold his own. He is anti-rush down. The hitbox of footdive is the size of Florida. If they dash in, just jump and throw it out there and dash cancel it. If they block it, oh well, you like +1 or +2 on it. Air photon shots stop scrubby rushdown (No teleports, just straight up ground dashing and super jumping and air dashing). Plasma beam is a full screen ball buster for rushdown. Hidden Missiles THC = Safe and bodies the ground game, especially with Ammy or Dormammu or whatever you want you use that punishes not blocking and shit.
His rushdown game is also really underrated and for some reason not considered. Doom with Ammy is the most ridiculous shit ever. You don’t know whats gonna happen to your life when Ammy comes out lol. Dude can kill you off a throw, so his mixup game is pretty good. Low, high, cross up or throw in the corner is good enough for a mixup game.
Doom is ridiculous. If he isn’t Top 3 to yall, then yall are stupid.
Dante:
Dante is a very good character, not just as an assist, but on point. Dude has every tool that a good character needs except damage. Damage alone doesn’t win matches. Look at Ironfist. Ass as fuck, but does hella damage. The characters toolsets do. If Zero didn’t have LLs and he had shitty damage, I think he still would of been ridiculous in this game because of his toolset.
Dante is a failed glass cannon. He has the toolset of a glass cannon, but he doesn’t have the damage of a traditional glass cannon. However, there is nothing that says that you can’t use his tools and not get any good damage with proper assists and DHC compatibility.
Jam session is top 5 assist free. No discussing that. We allllll agree on that.
But Dante has the toolset to deal with every single match-up. He can zone well, his rushdown is great, safe DHC, etc. So solid to me at least. st. B is retarded. Movement is good, etc.
Because he is made out of glass, but not a cannon, people consider him ass. I think he is very solid though. You have to either play him on point with 2 godlike assists behind him or play him on anchor. Just like Strider, except Dante OBVIOUSLY does more damage on him. He’s in the upper quartile of the game, like 13th or 12th.
Wolverine:
Wolverine is a good ass character. Very straight forward, but hella good footsies and ridiculously fast. However, lets stop roid raging. Niggas going off like, “Wolverine is so stupid. Lol BAN.”
Wolverine still has glaring weaknesses that have been exposed numerous of times in UMVC3. Maybe it was a troll, but holy fuck you guys worry me with your nonsense in this thread lol.
Ok, thats pretty much it for now.
Also wanna get your opinions on this.
Doom/Vergil
Morrigan/Doom
Doom/Strider
Doom/Ammy
Dante/Strider
Vergil/Magneto
Magneto/Doom
Dormammu/Doom
Doom/Phoenix
Zero/Dante
Wesker/Magneto
Dante/Vergil
These are the shells I think will end up being amongst the best in the game when its all said and done. What do you guys think about this?
Also, Doom/Vergil = Best shell. They work so well for each other.
